Chapter 34: The Calm Before the Storm (Part II)
"Hey, isn't this Brother Chen, when will you be discharged from the hospital, congratulations." At the corner of the stairs, Zhong Heng, who met the landlord Chen Zhixun, said to him who was still wearing a bandage on his head, "I learned about Brother Chen two weeks ago, you were still worried for a while, how about it, those gangsters didn't hurt you, right?" ”
"Well, don't mention it, it just came out yesterday." Chen Zhixun sighed and said, "Those gangsters beat me hard, but I still have a bit of proportion, they are all flesh wounds that don't get in the way, my hospitalization is mainly caused by the hornets in the back, although they mainly attack those gangsters, but they still stung me more than a dozen times, if I didn't take advantage of the chaos to run fast, I would have died like those old boys." That's it, the allergic reaction that followed still caused me to lie in the hospital for so many days, and I only came out yesterday. ”
"Forehead ......"
Hearing the news, Zhong Heng suddenly became petrified, and Xiao Qian next to him couldn't help but laugh out loud.
I didn't expect me to almost get into such a big trouble......
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Zhong Heng's expression was a little strange, Chen Zhixun asked suspiciously.
"No, it's nothing, it's just a little curious...... Zhong Heng quickly changed the topic and said, "Brother Chen, isn't it strange that you said this, that golden ring wasp ...... Excuse me, it's a hornet, I'm stunned to study a professional class, you said that that day this hornet suddenly rushed out to attack those gangsters and stung them to death, I heard that those gangsters died super ugly, and their faces were swollen like pigs' heads. ”
While speaking, the final balance also used exaggerated movements to make a gesture.
"You don't know anything about insects, so how can I know? Maybe as the saying goes, sluts have their own harvest, and these scum usually do a lot of things that lose their conscience, and they are all retribution! Chen Zhixun clenched up a fist and said, "No, God will punish them, although I also lay in the hospital for more than ten days with bad luck, but in general, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"The land is no longer requisitioned, and the building left by my parents is saved. Although I paid tens of thousands of yuan in the hospital these days, because of this incident, the county public security chief personally came to the hospital to see me a few days ago and apologized to me, saying that it was because of his dereliction of duty that I was beaten up because of the poor security in Y County, and he also gave me nearly 200,000 yuan for mental damages...... Well, it's more appropriate to say it's a humanitarian compensation. ”
Of course, they also told me not to publicize this matter everywhere, saying that Y County has recently rated the top ten tourist counties in the province, and it will have a bad impact if it is poked out. Your sister, I was angry when I mentioned this, and I said why they were so kind to come to see me, it turned out that it was a weasel who gave a New Year's greeting to the chickens, and I already knew that there was really no good thing in these officials. Chen Zhixun said indignantly, "However, the shortest cannibalism is short, and we don't have any background, the people don't fight with the officials, the money is also taken, and the land is not expropriated, so we don't care." However, Ah Heng, what is the most unpleasant thing about this matter, do you know? ”
Speaking of this, Chen Zhixun's muscles were tense, the green tendons on his neck were exposed, and a pair of eyes on his emaciated face, which were usually squinted, were bloodshot, almost jumping out of his sockets.
"I'm fucking uncle!" He scolded a swear word, "I was beaten and stung, only to get 200,000 yuan, although the land is not expropriated, but it belongs to me, you shouldn't have moved, those gangsters, one by one, there is more than innocent not to say, except for one who still has half a breath left and is still lying in the ICU with only half a life, the family members of everyone who died made a fuss at the door of the Letters and Visits Office a few days ago, and everyone took more than 300,000 yuan in compensation, saying that the government management is unfavorable, and it is considered a dereliction of duty if the honeycomb is not removed in time...... Alas, in this era, all the taxpayers' money is used to feed the king! ”
"Brother Chen, take it easy, your illness is just right, don't get angry and hurt your liver." Zhong Heng used the wry smile expression in the cartoon with a drop of sweat the size of half a face on his forehead, looking at this old angry young man complaining and said, "The land is not levied, the money is also taken, we have a peaceful life, this matter is over, I can't be angry at these things that have happened." ”
"I know." Chen Zhixun said, "It's just that I can't swallow this breath, but I don't know if I'm blessed, so I picked up more than 100,000 yuan for nothing, so I don't think about it, as long as those old boys don't come to disturb me in the future." Hey, by the way, Ah Heng, have you eaten it? ”
"I ate on the way back."
"Oh, then you're busy, I'll eat, don't bother you to fiddle with those bugs, be careful not to run out." Chen Zhixun rubbed his head, which was a little swollen because of anger, and walked downstairs with a little limp.
"Hey, it must be, thank you Brother Chen for tolerating my hobby. Rest early and wish you a speedy recovery......"
After a polite meeting, a meeting between neighbors was over, but the bottom of Zhongheng's heart made waves again. As soon as he entered the house, Zhong Heng turned on the computer and searched the Internet for news about the golden-ringed wasp sting and killing the gangsters.
"Sure enough, it's exactly what I thought!"
There is a saying that netizens only have a maximum of seven days of memory, and it is completely applicable here, and this incident has not made any waves on the Internet, except for the news on major websites within three days of the incident, and some sporadic discussions on some local forums. Moreover, most of the news on news sites is not a front-page position, so there are not many clicks, and all of them may not add up to a million.
Although it is unlikely that there will be reporters who think about this in the direction of someone controlling the wasps, but in this era of negative news, the mystery and coincidence contained in this incident is definitely a good material for making a big news. There is nothing eye-catching to highlight at all, and there is not even a single sentence of criticism of society, nor the questioning sentence of "what caused this tragedy" that is common in news reports. Even, there are no pictures near the tube building, what is the name of the deceased, an interview with Chen Zhixun, or an interview with the nearby police, let alone a follow-up report.
There must be something strange in this, Zhong Heng didn't believe when reporters were so conscientious and knew how to protect the privacy of the parties, and he didn't believe when netizens were so indifferent and didn't even scold a few words. It wasn't until he opened a news website on the Internet that he was sure of this.
This is the news site he landed on after first seeing this news the day after the incident, and now, after clicking on the headline belonging to this news, only "404not found" remains.
"Xiaoqian, don't you think this thing is abnormal?" I opened a few more websites like this, and finally closed all the pages and turned back.
"Yes, although it has not been a day or two according to the trouble, I have never seen such an initiative so fast, and the responsibility has not been decided to give the money, and according to the custom, I have to go through the legal process to identify it first. Besides, they just gave money to the families of those dead gangsters, why did Chen Zhixun also take the money, and the land was not expropriated, if it was just for the sake of fame to evaluate the so-called strong tourism county, it was completely unreasonable. And ......"
"If the land is not expropriated, I don't know how much will be lost in the follow-up tourism development, and how many interest groups will be offended, just for a Chen Zhixun who has no money and no background, and a tenant neighborhood like a house, is it worth it, when did they pay so much attention to people?" Zhong Heng followed: "If it makes a big fuss, it will be fine, but now that the reports on the Internet are so sparse, they can't say that they still do it." Moreover, those reports have been gradually deleted over time, and everyone has forgotten about this matter quickly, and if it continues like this, it will be equivalent to a complete evaporation in less than two weeks. ”
"Now that the online media, especially the self-media, is so developed, how widely and how big the rumors in Sichuan Province were at the beginning, can they be suppressed? What is involved behind this matter is a Y county that is in the sky, and I don't believe they have such strong energy. ”
"Could it be a new PR ploy? Cold treatment makes everyone forget? ”
"Then why did they give up land acquisition? How much does it cost? Besides, it would be nice if it was, what I'm worried about now is not that there are any dirty py deals behind their backs, what are the shady ones, what interests are entangled, that's none of my business. What I'm worried about is that there are people at a higher level, such as national security, who have discovered the truth behind it, and even have their eyes on us. Grab a glass of water and drink it, and let yourself calm down a little bit.
"What do you mean......"
"Only they have the energy to suppress the news in all directions. As for compensating those dead gangsters and giving money to Brother Chen, it is very simple, they hope that this matter will be completely suppressed, but the method is very clever. "The affairs of the government are suppressed by administrative means, and it is easy for them to be at their level. As for society, they want the public to completely forget about it, but instead of blindly concealing the blockade, they avoid the important and whitewash it as an accident, even if there is such a legendary mystery as "karma", it is just a very coincidental accident......"
In this way, according to the saying "netizens' memories are only seven days at most", plus they delete the news after the incident has passed, and soon the public will forget about it, even if one or two occasionally remember, what they still talk about on the Internet is just a small shrimp that has no evidence to make up a story, which prevents everyone from thinking about this thing in some supernatural place, and prevents some things that may cause panic from being exposed. Take, for example, the Evolver. ”
"Then why haven't they come to check the water meter?" Xiao Qian asked, "If you follow this line of thought, in the next step, whether they recruit us or eliminate us, they will at least come to the door to investigate the truth, but it's been so long, why haven't there been any movement at all?" ”
"I don't know, maybe we haven't been exposed, maybe they're suspicious of others, or maybe they're staring at us in the dark right now...... Hey, I should have known that I shouldn't have made a big news, and I should have stung them. ”
"However, it's useless to doubt this, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, isn't that what you told me on the mountain today, is it?" Zhong Heng smiled and said, "Anyway, let's just brake here, be honest, do things in a low-key manner, do what we should do, and do a good job of preparing for a rainy day." When the day comes, I will fight when I should fight, I will run when I should, and if I can't run, I will eat public meals in the future, with my ability and potential, as long as I don't kill the people who come and offend the country to death, it won't bother with me for the cheap lives of a few gangsters. ”
"Well, then, are you still going to the October party?" Xiao Qian asked.
"This ...... Do you have to think about it, in my opinion, or ......"
Suddenly, there was a commotion from downstairs.
